To aggro Cerio Vallain in Sanctus Seru: Echoes of Order [Solo], you have to speak to his audience members, which makes them instantly aggro. You can't use the luminous aspergillii on the audience. I tried speaking to all of them and then running back and feigning death, hoping that they'd change status so that I could send them home, but that didn't work. To finish "Moon Mission:Echelon of Order [Solo]" killing Cerio isn't a step, but the Praesertum war party doesn't spawn until Cerio is dead. So, if you are good, and wish to save innocent lives, how does one complete this zone? Or do we have to accept the evil of slaying a handful of innocent Seru citizens in the pursuit of slaying one of their oppressors?
Considering that they instantly attack you when you merely speak to them, I'm not sure you're being 'evil' by defending yourself.
Actually, you are. Because if you do this zone enough times, you get a "Slayer of Innocents" achievement.
That's the opinion of whatever dev's coded those NPCs. I don't happen to share it If I say 'hello' to somebody and they immediately try to kill me, 'killing them back' isn't evil as far as I'm concerned
You don't have to choose to slay them. You can send them to their home. Eventually you get "saviour of innocents' or close to that... hmm not in game but will check later.
No, this is specifically the six citizens listening to Cerio. You can't use the aspergillium on them.
Yes sorry was short on time and couldn't add a bit to my message. Overall you can still be a savior. Just not for those that have thrown in their lot with Cerio.
The way I see it is that if these citizens are innocent, but they attack you when you hail them, then there is a higher, more evil power that has tempered their personalities and brainwashed them. They may be innocent, but self defense is self defense. Going agro on you for hailing them is some Manchurian Candidate levels of provokation.
Naughty dev! /shakes_finger_like_your_grandma_did I really want to be able to somehow drag the audience far enough away that they get out of the range of Cerio's enchantments and can be saved! Then when the whole audience is gone, Cerio can aggro! My good toons don't want to kill innocents! (And the evil toons are just busy sending citizens to jump...)
My "evil " toons are all not that evil either I don't like to kill characters even if they are only data. Even in Freeport there are ok if not even good people. Just because you live in one of the Freeport faction cities dose not mean that everybody delights in torturing people . It would be good if you could choose how you want to handle the situation.
For years I played with a person who absolutely would not kill animals or "innocents" in the game. I always respected her dedication to that. Me, I'm gonna kill every Halfling in EL just because they've got a star, but I'm a terrible person.
there is nothing wrong with feeling for those creatures yes . But I keep on having to remind myself that this is a game , and if I have to kill somebody or something I don't have to enjoy it .
